Abstract
A method for suppressing magnetizing inrush current of the transformer with flux linkage control includes connecting a small-capacity direct current/alternating current (DC/AC) converter with the secondary winding or auxiliary winding of transformer, detecting the primary side phase voltage before closing load, inducing the core flux linkage reference according to the relationship between the winding voltage and core flux linkage. The core flux linkage closed-loop PI control system is constructed to control the converter voltage in the synchronous coordinate, then the core flux linkage can track its reference with no static error, thus the sinusoidal flux linkage with 90-degree difference from the grid voltage can be pre-established in the core before no-load closing. By these methods, no matter when the main transformer closes, the core flux linkage is always in the steady state, and the magnetizing inrush current can be eliminated completely.

(29) Based on the above circuit topology and control flow, a simulation model of a flux linkage closed-loop control system of a transformer is able to be constructed. Referring to
(30) The above control flow is able to be programmed in a digital signal processor (DSP) (TMSF28335). The specific hardware implementation of the control flow is as follows: firstly obtaining a flux linkage signal of the transformer through a flux linkage observer, inputting the flux linkage signal to an ADC pin of the DSP through a conditioning circuit formed by an operational amplifier, converting the inputted flux linkage signal into a digital signal through a ADC module inside the DSP, obtaining a PWM driving pulse signal of the single-phase full-bridge converter or the three-phase half-bridge converter by calculating in the DSP as shown in

Before closing the transformer, the phase of the primary-side grid voltage is detected. According to the relationship between the voltage of the iron core and the core flux linkage, reference instructions of the core flux linkage are deduced, referring to formulas II and V. In the synchronous rotating coordinate system, the core flux linkage closed-loop PI control system is constructed for controlling the output voltage of the converter, so as to make the core flux linkage track the reference value of the flux linkage without static error. Therefore, a sinusoidal synchronous flux linkage with a phase difference of 90 degrees from the grid voltage is pre-established in the iron core before closing the transformer. Through the above measures, no matter when the transformer is closed, the core flux linkage will be directly in a steady-state without transient process, thereby completely eliminating the magnetizing inrush current.
